We present the latest results from a series of three-dimensional MHD simulations of the Quiet Sun magnetic field. The computational domain extends from the upper convection zone out into the corona, and includes the highly-stratified layers of the photosphere, chromosphere, and transition region. Our study focuses on the following questions: Can the magnetic field generated by a convective surface dynamo heat a model corona to soft X-ray emitting temperatures? Do physical processes such as resistive and viscous dissipation supply the necessary heating throughout the model atmosphere, or is an additional empirically-based heating mechanism required? What is the magnetic connection between the flux threading the model photosphere, and that filling the model corona? Can the magnetic field in the dynamic models be successfully reproduced by static extrapolations?
